I like this selection. He's got the speed to kill. He just needs some chemistry/time to develop his route running, might not ever happen but with his speed he has a shot to be really effective across from Calvin Johnson.

Is he a #2 though? I mean maybe in the future he could be but initially sounds like a situational deep threat.

Still don't think we have a #2 right now.

I mean that's really a tall task to ask a guy to step up from college and be a teams number 2 right away this late. I mean it can happen, athletically he's got the tools, it's the intangibles now that he'll have to iron out. He'll have to work with Stafford quite a bit imo to get use to this offense( we've seen how ineffective Thomas/Robiskie/Durham was without time.) I mean WR's aren't like screws, they sometime have to gel with the QB for a bit to understand there timing and patterns/tendency's.

I'd say, early on or maybe the whole year I'd count on Burleson likely stepping up on the outside as our number 2.

I doubt he becomes our #2, but the potential is there. I hope he can return kicks, that would be a huge plus. At worst he is a guy with nice size with great speed who is a good deep threat that could take some coverage away from Calvin._________________

Well, he has never returned a kick to date. He is a track star though who walked on to Tech's team after transferring from Kansas. He's got potential in a lot of areas, including returner but his biggest contribution should be on the outside across from Calvin. At 6'2, 205lbs, with 4.3 speed he's got all the tools to beat 1on1 coverage's.
